The Lidcombe Behavioral Data Language (LBDL; K. Bryant & A. Packman, 1999; A. Packman & M. Onslow, 1998; A. Packman, M. Onslow, & K. Bryant, 2000) is a recently developed taxonomy of stuttering. It fills a void in stuttering research because most current descriptive systems are taxonomies of disfluencies, not stuttering alone, and are not behaviorally based. This study is an investigation of intrajudge and interjudge agreement for the LBDL. Ten experienced speech-language pathologists and 10 undergraduate students received brief instruction in the LBDL and then applied it to 15 intervals of stuttered speech on 2 occasions. The speakers were children and adults. Intrajudge agreement was high for both groups but only experienced judges achieved satisfactory interjudge agreement. Results suggest that some stuttering behaviors may be easier to categorize than others. Possible applications of the LBDL to research and clinical practice in stuttering are discussed.
利德科姆行为数据语言(LBDL;K. 布莱恩特和A. 帕克曼,1999年;A. 帕克曼和M. 昂斯洛,1998年;A. 帕克曼、M. 昂斯洛和K. 布莱恩特,2000年)是一种最近开发的口吃分类法。它填补了口吃研究中的一个空白,因为目前大多数描述系统都是关于言语不流畅的分类法,而不仅仅是口吃的分类法,而且不是基于行为的。本研究是对LBDL的评判者内一致性和评判者间一致性的调查。十名经验丰富的言语病理学家和十名本科生接受了LBDL的简短培训,然后两次将其应用于15个口吃言语片段。说话者包括儿童和成人。两组的评判者内一致性都很高,但只有经验丰富的评判者达到了令人满意的评判者间一致性。结果表明,一些口吃行为可能比其他行为更容易分类。文中讨论了LBDL在口吃研究和临床实践中的可能应用。
